Who Was Puerto Rico's Water System Really Built For?
In early August, Puerto Rico implemented an alternating water-rationing system in response to severe drought, affecting over 180 thousand households in the San Juan area. But the crisis goes back way before that, and many across the archipelago have been living without water for years. In this episode, we dive into the history of Puerto Rico’s water system and how colonialism in the Caribbean region has shaped it. From the sugar cane industry to booming factories, we look at how the water infrastructure has evolved, and who it has left behind. Want to support our independent journalism?

¿Para quién es el agua en Puerto Rico?
En agosto pasado, el gobierno de Puerto Rico implementó un racionamiento de agua, en medio de una sequía severa, que afectó a 180 mil hogares en el área metropolitana de San Juan. Pero la crisis del agua precede a la sequía y afecta a muchas más familias en todo el archipiélago. En este episodio, nos zambullimos en la historia del sistema de acueductos de Puerto Rico y en cómo sus características están relacionadas con la historia colonial de la región caribeña. Desde la industria del azúcar al boom de la manufactura, miramos cómo la infraestructura del agua ha evolucionado y a quiénes ha dejado a secas.Want to support our independent journalism?

Una conversación con Angelo Colina
En este episodio de La Brega, una conversación con el comediante venezolano Angelo Colina. Desde que Angelo decidió hace unos años dedicarse a la comedia en español, Puerto Rico se ha convertido en una de sus plazas más importantes. Tanto, que recientemente filmó su especial de “stand-up” en el Teatro Tapia de San Juan. Y cada vez son más los seguidores que celebran su capacidad de sacarle punta a lo cotidiano y de tender puentes culturales con chistes y ocurrencias. Así que, hoy, hablamos con Angelo sobre por qué el Caribe es un lugar repleto de historias, cómo difiere la nostalgia puertorriqueña de la venezolana y cómo el humor une a los boricuas con el resto de Latinoamérica y también con los latinos en Estados Unidos.Want to support our independent journalism?

The Sounds We Could Lose With Esencia
In August, the Puerto Rican government issued preliminary approvals for Esencia, a controversial $2.7 billion project in Cabo Rojo.This proposed luxury complex includes a private beach club, golf courses, and upscale residences and hotels. But experts, from scientists to government agencies and environmental groups, have all warned that the development would displace locals and threaten wildlife in the area, an ecologically sensitive part of Puerto Rico. In this episode, the La Brega team takes us through this landscape as we hear the natural and wildlife sounds that could be lost if Esencia is built.

Los sonidos que podríamos perder con Esencia
En agosto, el gobierno de Puerto Rico aprobó permisos preliminares para un controversial proyecto multimillonario en Cabo Rojo conocido como Esencia. El complejo exclusivo incluiría un club de playa privado, campos de golf, hoteles y residencias de lujo. Pero expertos —desde científicos a grupos ambientalistas y agencias gubernamentales— han advertido que el proyecto desplazaría a los locales y amenaza la flora y fauna de un área de alto valor ecológico. En este episodio, el equipo de La Brega nos lleva en un paseo sonoro por ese entorno para escuchar lo que podríamos perder si Esencia se construye.Para ver una foto de un guabairo y más imágenes del episodio, síguenos en Instagram: @labregapodcastWant to support our independent journalism?
